schExtractConn

schExtractConn( 
d_cvId 
)
=> l_result

Description

Runs the schematic connectivity extractor on the cellview you specify.

Figures on the wire layer with drawing, flight, or label purposes are processed. Figures on the pin layer with drawing purposes are processed as schematic pins. Instances are of either cell or pin purpose; components that have cell purpose and pin instances must have objects in the master on the pin layer with drawing purpose to be processed correctly.

The extractor uses three schematic environment settings:

• maxLabelOffsetUU specifies an offset distance from a label in which automatic association, or gluing, occurs
  Refer to schGlueLabel for details. If a wire is within the distance specified by maxLabelOffsetUU, the label is automatically glued to it.
• runSRC specifies whether the schematic rules checker is run after the connectivity is successfully extracted from the cellview
• runVIC specifies whether the cross-view checker is run after the connectivity is successfully extracted from the cellview

If you initiate the extraction from the index of a multisheet design, the extractor automatically extracts the sheets that require extracting.

Can be used only when editing a schematic cellview.

Arguments

Value Returned

Examples

Extracts connectivity for the cellview you specify.

schExtractConn( cv )

Extracts connectivity for the cellview you specify but does not run the schematic rules checker or the cross-view checker.
